About This Product
BPI Sports Best BCAA W/Energy Sour Candy is categorized as an 'Other Combinations' protein supplement, featuring a blend of branched-chain amino acids and an energy complex. Each 10-gram serving provides Glycyl-Alanyl-Lysine-L-Leucine at 2.5 grams, Glycyl-Alanyl-Lysine-L-Isoleucine at 1.25 grams, and Glycyl-Alanyl-Lysine-L-Valine at 1.25 grams, alongside 1 gram of Glycyl-Alanyl-Lysine-L-Citrulline and a proprietary 'Best Energy Blend'. The product received an N+ Score of 54, earning an 'F' grade, indicating a below-average rating, primarily due to the absence of any ingredients at clinically studied doses and a formula completeness score of 0. While label transparency is fair at 80%, the ingredient adequacy is 50%. This product may be considered by individuals seeking a BCAA supplement with added energy components, but it lacks research-backed dosages for its primary amino acid blend.
